HMB Camping

Having a camper van is like having a 2nd home.  You have to buy all this shit to put into it (though I admit that is wildly fun).  I feel like my carbon footprint is looking like that of big foot's.  However I just saved a 35-year old car from meeting the junkyard so maybe I'm stacking up my carbon neutral points too.

We camped at Half Moon Bay this weekend.  It's such a short drive from our house (about 45 minutes).  It's almost as if we never left home, except for the sleeping in a freezing car on the beach.


This baby cot, right above the front seats, is twice the size of her bassinet at home.  We sleep in a car and Niko gets an upgrade on her bed.  

Niko loved watching Mila fly a kite on the beach.  

Pulling Niko into my bed for a morning snuggle.  She was freezing cold but slept better than any night at home.  Maybe that's what I've been doing wrong at home, I'm forgetting the ice packs in her bed.  
I love stripy Niko against stripy bedding.

  2. I just want to eat Niko up. And I thought I was hearing my own voice in the background there too... totally sounds like something I would say.

  3. Hello, I've found your blog via google. I am a mother of almost 4-year old wonderful son Oleg, with the same ML II. We live in Poland. While reading your blog I thought about similarities of our stories, of our special pretty childres :) Hugs and kisses for Niko! Ala

    1. Hi Ala, I'm sorry to hear that your son has ML II. In this very small word of I-Cell, I'm extremely thankful to find other families. Otherwise it can feel like a very lonely world. I wish the best for your family and especially for Oleg.
